Started in 1999, Advanced Flight Systems is a classic family entrepreneurial story. An electrical engineer with software expertise, founder/owner Rob Hickman created an engine monitor for the RV-4 he was building. Other local builders expressed interest, and a company was born. After almost two decades of innovation, Advanced Flight Systems is now part of the Dynon family of companies. For his contributions to the industry through Advanced Flight Systems, Rob Hickman was inducted into the EAA Homebuilders Hall of Fame in 2017.
